The discussion covers what exosomes are, their applications, and the importance of using high-quality sources. Rubin shares her personal experience with stem cell treatment for her meniscal tear, highlighting the benefits she noticed within five weeks.

Takeaways

  • Exosomes are small vesicles used for cell communication, crucial for signaling in injury recovery.

  • Stem cells can regenerate tissues and respond to exosome signals.

  • Quality control is essential in sourcing exosomes.

  • There is a lack of regulation in the exosome market.

  • Patients should seek qualified professionals for exosome treatments. Patients should inquire about sterility and endotoxin testing.

  • Stem cell treatments are still highly experimental and not guaranteed to work.

  • Regulation of med spas is inconsistent across states and a new entity, the MedSpa Board, aims to certify ethical and legal practices in the industry.

  • Researching providers and treatments is essential for patient safety.
